If you don't like it, turn it off in preferences... not sure what the big deal is.
Personally I like it for there to be music, but I turn the music slider down. I prefer sound effects to have to be louder than the music.
I'm a fan of turn-based RPGs, so I mostly go for old-school games. Though there have been a few good modern games here and there that help scratch that itch.
I've watched the first 4 episodes, I've enjoyed it. Not a fan of following different threads. I wish they picked a character to focused on and revolved everything from that POV. I know that they cross paths and so on, but not a fan of the multiple PoV take.

Off the top of my head Hunter x Hunter, Monster, Legend of the Galactic Heroes, and GTO: Great Teacher Onizuka have been my favorites. I'm sure I'm overlooking some series I loved a long time ago, but those 4 are the ones that always come to mind when this question gets asked.
I'm into just about any fetish, but as I sit thinking here there hasn't been 1 fetish that games have introduced to me that I already haven't experienced before.
But I'll keep a look out, since this made me think and I'd like to think that games will introduce me to something obscure at some point.
